The multiple advantages of changing your street light bulb

Street lighting is often taken for granted and overlooked until a light bulb expires and someone is tasked with replacing it.

We are residents of a small village in France and we respect the environment. The ‘Maire’ approached us to research replacement light bulbs for the existing lamp posts as we have extensive knowledge in electronics and electrical systems.

We measured and collated data on the existing village street lighting and decided the replacement light bulb specification would need to be:

Waterproof

Insect friendly

Ecologically sustainable

Cost effective

Long life

Our research spanned a year because, until recently, the available alternatives were not waterproof IP65 and therefore would not be suitable for an open style lamp post head. The solution at that time meant replacing the entire head of the lamp post with a sealed unit, hence costing hundreds of Euros.

Subsequently we were able to repeat the data collection tests on a new product late in 2017. The LED VZJ30-50W Tulip satisfied all the replacement criteria and the results were astounding.
